    Culture is a bad excuse to prop up one of the worst industries for climate change though

      I agree, just answering the question for those outside the US.

      I know a lot of folks advocate a plant based diet. I don’t think large portions of the US will be willing to do that. I think it is an easy sell to eat less beef and more other meats because it is cheaper and not a major diet change.

      Now if we can get people to order online and go in instead of drive thrus…it is usually a lot faster too. Drive thrus suck because there is always someone who wants extra ketchup, exactly two pickles, 3 onion slices, half a cheese slice, and one drop of mayo.

        Definitely true that people won’t go plant-based. I think we should be thinking about how to get lab grown meat into our food supply faster.
